The new BBC TV drama, The Indian Doctor - 1st tx 15th November 2010 on BBC 1. Music specially composed by BDi composer, Barnaby Taylor, Directed by Tim Whitby and Exec produced by Tom Ware, starring Sanjeev Bhaskar, Ayisha Dharker and Mark Williams.It stars Sanjeev Bhaskar as a high-flying Delhi graduate who arrives in the UK in 1963 as part of the first wave of Indian doctors wooed by then health minister Enoch Powell. Arriving in a sleepy Welsh mining village, his glamorous wife's not too happy with the situation. And neither are the locals, including the Coal Board's slightly snooty local manager (Mark Williams), who obviously has a few skeletons in his cupboard. It's a lovely slice of nostalgia, albeit served with a big dollop of social comment.
